Chapter 42
Episode 42
Let’s pick the right mulberry!
X started the full-scale dungeon attack with great momentum, but a truly formidable difficulty awaited him. Gooooo! The polluted spirits spewed hostility towards X.
“Hehehe, this is the first time I’ve felt burdened by a monster.”
A quest with difficulty level B-!
First of all, rankers had no choice but to have a hard time with quests whose difficulty level exceeded B. The same was true for X, who had overwhelming stats.
However, it was not easy, just that it was difficult.
Because X obtained a title that suited him perfectly in the Thiyer family dungeon!
See the end of the dungeon alone: When entering a dungeon alone, all stats increase by 5%. Damage received in dungeons is reduced by 10%.
‘I eat it all by myself and there is no better effect than this!’
X shouted with a smile.
“Yongyong!”
At X’s signal, Yongyong unleashed Dragon Fear.
“Kyuuuuu!”
A cry echoes through the dungeon!
Although it was much less powerful than a real dragon fear, it was definitely effective against spirits. The guys who were concentrating on using black magic fell into confusion.
“Here we go, you guys.”
Crack! X jumped out and moved like water to attack the guys’ vital points. With a sword and a shield! There was no hesitation in X’s movements as he attacked one after another.
[Your level has increased!]
X shrugged his shoulders after checking the notification.
“Whew. Since the bear stance is over, shall we go slowly?”
To be honest, X was able to easily avoid the attack of the contaminated spirit deer. But this is a dungeon. You never know when a new monster will invade.
Therefore, I always wanted to maintain optimal condition.
‘Of course, I can’t wait for the bear stance cooldown.’
Still, I didn’t plan on hunting for an hour and resting for 24 hours.
It was X and Yongyong who moved very quickly. First, X gave Yongyong some meat.
“Chew it thoroughly, Yongyong. “You’re a bit of a hurried eater.”
“Kyuuu. “Kyuuu.”
“It sucks. “You worked hard, so eat as much as you want.”
Wagu wagu!
In an instant, Yongyong’s stomach rose like Namsan. It was amazing how such a small body could eat so much meat. X also took out cooking utensils.
“I can’t just pass up new ingredients.”
Unique grade meat!
Like Yongyong, the satiety level was quite low. X lit a bonfire in a safe area to check the effects of the newly acquired meat.
‘Let’s just bake it for now.’
Heavenly Cooking was buffed from the moment it was used, so it was efficient to eat it last. X took out all the spirit deer meat he had brought from his inventory.
“Yongyong, even if you drool like that, I won’t give it to you.”
“Kyuu….”
“You can’t look at me cutely. “I heard you’re getting fat?”
100 percent satiety.
Nevertheless, Yongyong was hovering around, perhaps because the meat smelled good. However, X was also a cold-hearted man with his own food. Despite X’s cute eyes, he was absorbed in grilling the meat.
All at once!
Soon I bit into the steaming meat.
A taste that cannot be described in words!
The juice that burst out was so sweet that it was closer to juice than meat. Still, the texture was amazing. There was no fishy smell peculiar to deer meat at all.
[Heavenly taste has discovered the hidden flavor of ‘Roasted Spirit Deer’!]
[The spirit deer’s energy is absorbed into the body!]
[Maximum mana increases by 500 points!]
[Intelligence increases by 20 points!]
“ “It’s going up a lot, isn’t it?”
X muttered as he ate the remaining meat. Is it because it is a material that originally had a special effect that increased intelligence? The range of increased stats was truly enormous.
“…I need to think about this carefully, right?” If the increase
is this much…
A sauce that can be made with the spices and skills you have. If you use the skill of pouring sauce, eating and dipping, you can create at least dozens of flavors with just one ingredient.
‘Even a rough calculation can greatly increase your intelligence.’
Even when compared to magician classes of the same level, it’s so good that it doesn’t pale in comparison, no, it’s crushing!
An opportunity to increase intelligence and mana had come to X.
X immediately lined up the spices.
“We can continue to procure materials.”
It is a dungeon where monsters constantly appear. If you ran out of materials, all you had to do was catch monsters outside the safe zone. X started cooking again, imagining it in his head.
A sword in one hand and magic in the other!
Isn’t there a perfect magic swordsman?
“Hehe, then you must be disappointed with the Kalsumar shield technique?”
Happy pondering!
X laughed like an idiot. In this situation, it was natural to laugh like an idiot. It was even more strange not to burst out laughing at the opportunity to drastically increase one’s stats.
“Kyuuu….”
“I said it wouldn’t work, Yongyong.”
“Kyuuuu.”
“Even if you try to be cute, I won’t give it to you.”
Try flapping your wings and wagging your tail.
Yongyong showed cuteness to X, who continued to inhale the meat. However, there was no way X, who was blind to his stats, would give up the meat. In the end, X ate all but one piece of spirit deer meat in his inventory by himself.
It took half a day just to eat.
Only then did X discover Yongyong, who was downcast.
“Sorry, I’ll take care of you next time too.”
“Kyuuu!”
Unlike his owner, Yongyong was good-natured and never left behind. Leaving behind Yongyong, who had regained his energy, X checked the status window where a huge change had occurred.
Name

Huge growth!
In just half a day, X’s mana and intelligence had doubled, or more than doubled.
It was thanks to him that he made full use of his heavenly sense of taste. Even X was stuttering at his own growth.
“I guess I should learn magic properly?”
Currently, X was only using practical dancing stems. However, if mana and intelligence increase like this, the story is different.
‘Magic that can be learned in common.’
Of course, powerful high-level magic can only be used by magician-type occupations. However, low-level magic with less power could be learned for other professions as long as intelligence was supported.
“In the end, the power of magic is proportional to intelligence.”
Even if it were a low-level magic, it would have a power that could never be ignored.
X thought about buying a skill book. X’s current capital is over 10,000 gold. That level of investment was nothing.
“Of course, you have to buy the skill book from the NPC.”
To X, all other users are competitors.
It is absolutely unacceptable to inflate a competitor’s wallet.
X made up his mind and took out the remaining piece of spirit deer meat.
‘Now all I have to do is figure out the effects of heavenly cooking.’
If you were the king of gourmet food, what would you cook with spirit deer meat?
“Heavenly cuisine.”
Ssssss! X, who concentrated, followed the Gourmet King’s shadow and memorized the recipe. Since I do this almost every day, I have come to understand the habits of the king of gourmets.
‘You have a sense of rhythm when cutting.’
Crack, clap, clap! Crack!
A shadow that always cuts meat with a certain beat! The Gourmet King’s Shadow took considerably more time than usual to cook the spirit deer meat.
“…How did you do it?”
Even X, who prides himself on having a good memory, had forgotten it. Anyway, a heavenly dish that took more effort than usual was completed. X’s satiety was already 100 percent. Therefore, X checked the information first rather than putting it in his mouth right away.
– Roast deer blessed by an old tree (★★)
A deer that has become closer to a spirit thanks to the continued blessing of an old tree.
The moment you eat it, you will be able to feel the spirit.
Special Effects: ?
“Two stars?”
One star has increased!
This was my first time making a dish made of heaven. Since the ingredients were the ingredients, I wondered if a dish for the opposite sex had been created. Of course, there were other possibilities.
Heavenly Cooking (10%)
“The skill level may exceed 10%.”
It could have been one of the two, or it could have been a combination of two possibilities that created the opposite sex dish. What was more important than that was the effect.
“I feel like a spirit….”
Gulp! X swallowed dry saliva and took a bite of the roasted deer.
A notification came to mind.
[Heavenly taste has discovered the hidden taste in ‘Roasted Deer Blessed by the Ancient Tree of Reason’!]
[The spirit’s energy is absorbed into the body!]
[Your ability to communicate with nature increases to its maximum for 24 hours! ]
[Natural magic damage increases by 100% for 24 hours!]
[You will be able to absorb a small amount of mana from nature for 24 hours!]
X, surprised by the taste, could not help but be surprised once again by the notification. The effect of opposite sex cooking was enormous. Of course, unlike Ilseong Cooking, which lasted for 60 minutes, the buff lasts for 24 hours. Even the quality of the buffs was on a different level.
“Chuck, natural magic damage increases by 100%?!”
Doesn’t this mean that the damage of dancing stems is doubled? No other buff will be able to improve magic damage to this degree. Not only that.
“Besides, mana recovery also increases?”
In Fate, items related to mana recovery are traded at high prices. All classes used skills, and when they used skills, they had no choice but to suffer from lack of mana. Of course, it was not a particularly necessary effect for X, which has a low dependence on mana.
But where is it?
“The ability to communicate with nature has increased to the maximum, the damage from natural magic has increased by 100%, and if you don’t have enough mana… why don’t you try using some magic?”
X stood up confidently. I thought I would get some proper rest and start hunting right away. X cleared the surroundings in an instant and left the safe zone.
Gooooo! The contaminated spirits we encountered immediately.
X also raised his mana like they did.
‘It definitely feels different.’
Mana also increases significantly.
Intelligence also increases significantly.
Moreover, X’s ability to communicate with nature was at its maximum. Thanks to this, the mana energy pulsing through my body has definitely increased. Soon X shouted.
“Dancing stems!”
Quad deuk!
With a tremendous roar, thick stalks appeared from all directions. Kuuk! When X clenched his fist towards the contaminated spirits, he clenched! With a sound, the guys were bound.
‘I’ve become incredibly strong!’
Until now, the dancing stem could only serve to tie up the opponent. However, when it received the greatly increased intelligence and the buff of the opposite sex, it showed such destructive power that it could be used as a main weapon.
“I guess I’ll have to farm until my inventory is full.”
That time when X was laughing.
A voice was heard.
-Thank you for freeing us from pain.
‘What is this sound?’
It was a voice coming from the contaminated spirit.
X, who was puzzled, was soon able to figure out the reason.
‘Is it because my ability to communicate with nature has reached its maximum level?’
Thanks to this, X was able to hear the voice of the spirit. X quickly handed over the apple.
Whatever the reason, X was attacking the spirits right now.
“sorry. Anyway, I’m sorry.”
-There is no need to apologize. Because our bodies and minds have already been controlled by evil energy. My mind is slowly fading… It’s too much to even talk to me like this. You need to hurry more than that.
“Are you in a hurry?”
X asked as the spirit’s voice became more urgent.
-The contamination of the old trees’ energy source rune stones is accelerating. If this continues, it won’t be long before the old trees will be dominated by evil energy!
“…Runestone?”
X frowned at the unusual word.
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
